About
Adhura
Adhura
delves
into
the
deep-rooted
fears
and
inner
demons
of
its
characters,
promising
a
gripping
and
suspenseful
journey
into
the
supernatural
realm.
It
follows
the
themes
of
guilt,
remorse,
and
revenge.
The
story
unfolds
through
two
timelines,
2022
and
2007,
as
secrets
and
chilling
events
plague
the
students
and
staff
of
a
prestigious
boarding
school.
What
starts
as
a
nostalgic
reunion
turns
sinister
when
Adhiraj
Jaisingh
(Ishwak
Singh)
encounters
Vedant
Malik
(Shrenik
Arora),
a
troubled
10-year-old
student.
As
the
past
and
present
collide,
a
dark
secret
threatens
to
emerge,
linking
Adhiraj
to
Vedant.
"Adhura
is
a
complex,
layered,
and
immersive
world
where
once-familiar
corridors
and
hallways,
become
a
labyrinth
of
fear
and
uncertainty,"
said
Aparna
Purohit,
head
of
India
originals
at
Prime
Video.
"Supernatural
horror
is
an
extremely
popular
genre
not
just
in
India
but
across
the
world,
so
we
are
extremely
excited
to
partner
with
Nikkhil
Advani
once
again,
in
a
genre
that
neither
Emmay
Entertainment
nor
Prime
Video
has
attempted
before.
As
our
first
Hindi
Original
horror
series,
I
am
certain
that
Adhura
will
engage,
provoke,
and
enthral
our
audiences."
"At
Emmay,
we've
dabbled
with
various
genres,
and
now
we
are
exploring
horror.
As
fans
of
this
genre,
we
were
eager
to
tell
this
classic
tale
of
a
ghost
in
boarding
school.
Haven't
we
all
shared
ghost
stories
in
dim-lit
rooms
with
our
friends?
Adhura
to
us
is
one
such
story,
waiting
to
be
shared
with
our
audiences," said
Gauravv
K
Chawla
and
Ananya
Banerjee,
directors,
Emmay
Entertainment.
"We
invite
the
viewers
to
step
inside
the
haunting
corridors
of
a
boarding
school
in
the
hills,
where
the
past
relentlessly
haunts
the
present
and
secrets
lurk
in
every
shadow.
The
series
promises
to
captivate
audiences
with
intrigue,
thrill,
and
emotions
and
immerse
them
into
a
realm
where
the
line
between
the
past
and
the
present
blurs,
leaving
them
wondering
what's
real
and
what's
imagined,
how
much
of
it
is
your
own
fear,
and
how
much
is
a
haunting
shadow
following
you?
All
the
actors,
including
Ishwak,
Rasika,
Shrenik,
and
Poojan,
have
done
a
fabulous
job
at
portraying
the
characters
the
way
they've
been
written,
and
we
can't
wait
for
the
audiences
to
see
them."
"With
Adhura,
we
are
exploring
the
horror
and
supernatural
genres
for
the
first
time
and
are
delighted
to
venture
into
this
space
with
Prime
Video.
We
are
glad
to
collaborate
with
them
once
again
after
the
immense
success
of
Mumbai
Diaries,"
shared
Nikkhil
Advani,
producer,
Emmay
Entertainment.
"With
each
episode,
the
viewers
will
be
immersed
in
the
intricacies
of
the
characters'
lives,
witnessing
their
stories
unfold
in
unexpected
ways.
This
series
explores
the
depths
of
human
emotions,
showcasing
the
complexity
of
relationships.
With
every
twist
and
turn,
it
will
captivate
and
leave
the
viewers
yearning
for
more.
It
was
wonderful
working
with
the
ensemble
cast,
especially
Shrenik
Arora,
who,
I
am
sure,
will
come
out
as
a
surprise
package."
